[Mageia-dev] freeze push: perl-URPM-4.26 & urpmi-7.19

Sat Feb 9 22:35:47 CET 2013

Hi
+
+Please let in perl-URPM-4.26 & urpmi-7.19
+I got rid of playing with rpm -Uvh --oldpackage foobar*rpm libfoobarX*rpm,
+so I added basic support for --downgrade (mga#6655).
+
+What's supported is eg:
+- enabling updates_testing
+- installing foobar from updates_testing
+- disabling updates_testing
+- running "urpmi --downgrade foobar" which will revert
+  back to version from updates or release
+
+Thx
+
+eg:
+# urpmi --downgrade null
+The following package has to be removed for others to be upgraded:
+null-9-22.mga3.x86_64
+ (in order to install null-9-21.mga3.x86_64) (y/N) y
+To satisfy dependencies, the following packages are going to be installed:
+  Package                        Version      Release       Arch
+(medium "temp45")
+  lib64null1                     9            21.mga3       x86_64
+  null                           9            21.mga3       x86_64
+0B of additional disk space will be used.
+2.8KB of packages will be retrieved.
+Proceed with the installation of the 2 packages? (Y/n) y
